AMD's DLSS rival may arrive too late for gamers
AMD is reportedly developing a competing upscaling technology, but it won't launch until next-generation RDNA 5 GPUs arrive.
In brief
AMD is reportedly developing a competing upscaling technology, but it won't launch until next-generation RDNA 5 GPUs arrive. AMD's response to Nvidia's DLSS 5 upscaling tech could be delayed so long that it loses competitive advantage in the market. Originally reported by TechRadar.
Nvidia's DLSS 5 sets new standard
Nvidia launched DLSS 5 with frame generation technology that uses AI to create entirely new frames, dramatically boosting gaming performance.
AMD working on competing technology
AMD is reportedly developing its own upscaling solution to compete with DLSS 5, according to industry sources tracking the company's GPU roadmap.
RDNA 5 GPUs still years away
AMD's upscaling tech won't arrive until next-generation RDNA 5 graphics cards launch, which is likely several years in the future.
Timing could cost AMD market share
By the time AMD's technology launches, Nvidia will have had years to establish DLSS 5 as the industry standard, making it harder for AMD to gain adoption.
Current RDNA 4 lacks response
AMD's current RDNA 4 generation has no equivalent to DLSS 5, leaving gamers with Nvidia cards as the only option for frame generation technology.
What to remember
AMD's response to Nvidia's DLSS 5 upscaling tech could be delayed so long that it loses competitive advantage in the market.
